In a series of tweets, President Donald Trump on Tuesday criticised Attorney General Jeff Sessions for taking "very weak position" on Hillary Clinton.
Trump tweeted on a day when new Russia sanctions bill is heading to his desk, "Attorney General Jeff Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes (where are E-mails & DNC server) & Intel leakers!" Trump wrote on Twitter.
"Problem is that the acting head of the FBI & the person in charge of the Hillary investigation, Andrew McCabe, got $700,000 from H for wife!,"Trump tweet.
Sessions made the decision to recuse himself from the Russian investigation after it was revealed that he had met the Russian Ambassador to U.S. Sergey Kislyak last year and did not disclose the meeting.
"Ukrainian efforts to sabotage Trump campaign - "quietly working to boost Clinton." So where is the investigation A.G.," Trump tweeted.
Trump has put forth the possibility of replacing Attorney General Jeff Sessions with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
